13# @TraceEventState:
14#
15# State of a tracing event.
16#
17# @unavailable: The event is statically disabled.
18#
19# @disabled: The event is dynamically disabled.
20#
21# @enabled: The event is dynamically enabled.

29# @TraceEventInfo:
30#
31# Information of a tracing event.
32#
33# @name: Event name.
34# @state: Tracing state.
35# @vcpu: Whether this is a per-vCPU event (since 2.7).
36#
37# An event is per-vCPU if it has the "vcpu" property in the "trace-events"
38# files.
39#
40# Since: 2.2

46# @trace-event-get-state:
47#
48# Query the state of events.
49#
50# @name: Event name pattern (case-sensitive glob).
51# @vcpu: The vCPU to query (any by default; since 2.7).
52#
53# Returns: a list of @TraceEventInfo for the matching events
54#
55# An event is returned if:
56# - its name matches the @name pattern, and
57# - if @vcpu is given, the event has the "vcpu" property.
58#
59# Therefore, if @vcpu is given, the operation will only match per-vCPU events,
60# returning their state on the specified vCPU. Special case: if @name is an
61# exact match, @vcpu is given and the event does not have the "vcpu" property,
62# an error is returned.
63#
64# Since: 2.2

66# Example:
67#
68# -> { "execute": "trace-event-get-state",
69#      "arguments": { "name": "qemu_memalign" } }
70# <- { "return": [ { "name": "qemu_memalign", "state": "disabled" } ] }

78# @trace-event-set-state:
79#
80# Set the dynamic tracing state of events.
81#
82# @name: Event name pattern (case-sensitive glob).
83# @enable: Whether to enable tracing.
84# @ignore-unavailable: Do not match unavailable events with @name.
85# @vcpu: The vCPU to act upon (all by default; since 2.7).
86#
87# An event's state is modified if:
88# - its name matches the @name pattern, and
89# - if @vcpu is given, the event has the "vcpu" property.
90#
91# Therefore, if @vcpu is given, the operation will only match per-vCPU events,
92# setting their state on the specified vCPU. Special case: if @name is an exact
93# match, @vcpu is given and the event does not have the "vcpu" property, an
